After Ping Qian took Yu Jue and left, Jiang Shu felt tired and sleepy, went back to the room and washed up briefly, and then fell asleep.

After a restful night's sleep, she woke up to the dawn.

Sunlight shines through the openwork windows, casting a swaying light and shadow on the water-green gauze curtains in front of the bed.

Jiang Shu slowly sat up with his sore body, and was about to put on a coat to get out of bed, when there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside, from far and near.

Soon after, Ping Qian pushed the door in, and ran in a little panic around the screen: "Miss, something happened, something is wrong......

She thought that Jiang Shu was still asleep, so she lifted the low-hanging gauze curtain and unexpectedly met her clear eyes, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "Miss, are you awake?" ”

Jiang Shu stared at her: "What's the matter?" So urgent. ”

Ping Qian's face looked a little pale: "Mama Liu died, early this morning, Lao Fu who patrolled the hospital found her drowning in Qiyue Pond." ”

Qiyue Pond is the name of the lotus pond that must pass through from the gate of Ye Mansion to the old lady's Changhe Hall, Ping Qian didn't know that Jiang Shu tricked Mama Liu into going down to the pool to save Ye Chiwan, thinking that this matter must be related to Jiang Shu's letting her put Yu Jue in Mama Liu's room last night.

Through that Yujue, the second lady Tang decided that Mama Liu had betrayed her and took refuge in Jiang Shu, worried that the poison in Jiang Shu's food would be exposed, so she ruthlessly killed her.

In fact, the shallow speculation is basically the same, the water in the Qiyue Pool is not too deep, Mama Liu dares to jump into the water to save people, she must know how to water, and the possibility of drowning is not very likely, this matter is designated to be related to Tang's.

Jiang Shu asked Ping Qian to put Yu Jue in Mama Liu's residence last night, originally to separate the two, so that they would not have the heart to deal with themselves, and they did not want to harm people's lives, but they didn't expect Tang's style to be so vicious that they directly wanted her life.

Although Mama Liu's death was not her own doing, it was inseparable from herself.

Jiang Shu faintly regretted what he had done, hugged the quilt and was silent for a moment and said, "Does the old lady know about it?" ”

Ping Qian nodded slightly.

"And what's her attitude?" Jiang Shu asked again.

Ping Qian thought for a while and said: "Listening to the old lady's side of the Portuguese rain, the old lady ordered a thick burial of Mama Liu, preferential treatment of her family, and let people claim that she drowned. ”

"She didn't want to investigate the real cause of Mama Liu's death?"

Ping Qian sighed softly: "It's just a dead slave, this matter will affect the reputation of the Ye Mansion, the old lady will not go to investigate, she will only settle the matter." ”

After finishing speaking, Xu thought that she was just a maid herself, and there was a little confusion in her eyes.

Jiang Shu looked at her like this, didn't ask anything more, ordered her to go out, and fell asleep again.

Through this incident, she suddenly realized that although the air was fresh and the folk customs were simple in ancient times, here, every step was dangerous, there were crises everywhere, and if she was not careful, she didn't even know how she died.

With the psychology of escape, from then on, Jiang Shu was reluctant to go out again, locked himself in the room, and only let Ping Qian send in some food every day.

Unconsciously, more than ten days passed, and the weather gradually warmed up.

In the spring of March, the flowers and trees in the courtyard that bloom earlier have gradually shown signs of drifting.

Jiang Shu had planned to lock himself up like this until this morning-

"Miss, Miss......" Ping Qian suddenly ran in.
